    Not really pal, just because I'm new and corrected your rediculous "ASS-Umpiton" that doesn't make me a troll......it just makes you someone who was wrong and got corrected. I'm not the one who quoted you out of the blue and ran my mouth.....you were, so who is the one "trolling here"?

    2 players that are only good with the ball in their hands and neither being the 1st option on the Rockets. Meh. Adelman's offense would never get off the ground.

    Cap space on good teams is actually not overrated. When is the last time a pretty good team had available cap space to go after someone? When is the last time a team with free cap space had a player like Yao, as opposed to a roster full of scrubs?

    We are in win now mode too, so why would we ship Battier to a team where he could put them over the top? Yeah, he has more value if you include teams that we would never trade him to.

    Why do people try to put Battier into this elite class of players? I've read where he could put Denver over the top. Are you kidding? Didn't Battier play on a grizzlies squad that couldn't win a playoff game? Isn't this the same battier that scored 22 in game 1 then avg 7ppg in the other 5? I don't think Denver would do it, but making Battier out to be the key. Iverson for anyone not named tracy and yao isn't even debateable.

    wait.......people have said there is no other evidence of this rumor on any other website.

    so why is 610 running with it? where did they get the smoke?

    Go f yourself loser. I was just passing along RUMOR that I heard. I NEVER SAID that this was set. I don't think Rich Lord and Matt Jackson are the be all end all when it comes to breaking stories. Again it is a rumor. It might happen might not. Sheesh what the f is your problem man.
